Retrevo is the first dedicated search engine specifically for gadget geeks to research consumer electronics, check community buzz, find pre-purchase information and get product documentation for technical support and troubleshooting.

"We all hear about the latest and greatest gadgets, but with so many cool new toys, it's impossible to get good information to buy the right product and make it work with the ones we already have," said Vipin Jain, CEO, Retrevo. "And when it comes to product documentation - forget it." "Retrevo has already searched all the manufacturers' sites so you don't have to."

Retrevo uses proprietary algorithms to crawl, collect, analyze and classify all known information for consumer electronics products. The company's machine learning technology performs deep content analysis, classification and retrieval, so you get the right answers right away.

"Every geek knows information is king," said Charles Wilson, VP Marketing, Retrevo. "As gadget geeks ourselves, we set out to create a comprehensive consumer electronics research site that would address the full lifecycle of the products we buy, install, connect to other devices and ultimately fix or replace."
